Sum the second value of each tuple in a list

I have structure like this:

structure = [('a', 1), ('b', 3), ('c', 2)]

I would like to sum the integers (1+3+2) using sum() builtin method (in one line).

Any ideas?

Method 1

sum(n for _, n in structure)

would work.

Method 2

sum(x[1] for x in structure)

should work

Method 3

You could do

sum(zip(*structure)[1])

Method 4

Using a functional style, you could do

reduce(lambda x,y:x+y[1], structure,0)
